AuthorTopic: IPv6 problem on Windows Server 2008 (Read 13366 times)

I have a tunnel set up on a win2k8 machine, every other machine on the network gets a IPv6 from it and can access ipv6-sites and can also access them by their ipv6-address from another f.ex school.

The problem is that even though all other machines on the network get an address, the win2k8-machine can't access ipv6-sites and can't be pinged either. I find this realy strange and no matter my debugging I can't seem to find out what's wrong. So, anyone experienced anything similar? Any commands / info i should post here so you can give me more help?.

Not sure what's going on here, but in a similar suggestion to cholz's, check your firewall rules to make sure that they aren't blocking access out by the tunnel router itself while allowing traffic from your LAN hosts to pass.

It looks to me like you have the wrong IPv6 addresses on your LAN interface, which appears to be a wifi adapter. Make sure you're using your routed /64 on the internal LAN interface, and the client IPv6 address on your tunnel interface.

It appears you have address or static routes for 2001:470:27:19f::/64 on both your tunnel and the wireless interface. That's just wrong.

That's odd. Maybe a peculiarity of win2k8? All my windows boxes autoconfig just fine. XP, Win7, etc. I'm almost sure there have been other Win2k8 users who have used it and autoconfed just fine too. Maybe there's a bit you have to flip in 2k8 to make it happen?

I was actually looking for a netsh command to turn OFF autoconfig in XP that I could have sworn I saw before, but couldn't find when I looked for it.

Ye, been looking around to see if I could find anything like that but to no avail :/

I've now set a ipv6 address manually, but that also got its quirks. When I set it manually I can ping and access other ipv6-resources like ipv6.google.com. But no one can ping my machine or get access to the services running on it. (This is even true when I completely disable the windows firewall, what an odd OS) When I try to ping it I get met with a 'Destination host unreachable.'.
